Graceful and timeless, the name Zulekha is a beautiful choice for a baby girl. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Brilliant beauty', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

Pronounced as Zulekha, it has a rhythmic flow that makes it memorable and distinct. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Zulekha, like the alternate spelling Zulaikha, is the traditional name given by Islamic commentary literature to the wife of “the Aziz” in the story of Yusuf, narrated in the Quran (12:23-34) without naming her directly.
